I think it funny that you mention Japan, because only last week i was very surprised how hard you're fined for drinking and driving in Japan, even the passengers of a car where the driver drank alhohol. :) Do not drive after drinking alcohol. Driving under the influence of alcohol is strictly prohibited and will result in a fine, imprisonment or penalty. When a driver is arrested for DUI, the driver and the person offering the car will be fined a maximum of 1,000,000 Yen, and all other passengers in the vehicle knowingly allowed the driver to drive will be fined a maximum of 500,000 Yen. And what do you mean with "In Japan there aren't any laws like that"? Are you kidding me? Japan has very strong laws against drugs! So in the end you support my statement.. strong laws = lower crime rate (how surprising). What would it have to do with people. People are not a unique mass, there are drug dealers, psychopaths and what not in every society. http://www.tofugu.com/2011/12/02/drug-laws-in-japan-youd-better-have-a-prescription/ http://www.tofugu.com/2011/12/02/drug-laws-in-japan-youd-bet... http://factsanddetails.com/japan.php?itemid=664 http://factsanddetails.com/japan.php?itemid=664 http://expatsguide.jp/ch6 http://expatsguide.jp/ch6
